2.4 AC Dual Redundant Power Connection (optional)
The Dual Redundant option allows the MRD 5800 to be powered by two separate
supplies either operating 120V or 240V systems. The power supply will automatically
detect the system it is connected to. To hook up the power use the following steps:
1. Locate the AC power cord that was included with the MRD 5800.
2. Plug the female end of the power cord (end with no prongs) into the back of the
unit.
3. Locate a protected outlet (usually inside of the rack) to plug the male end of the
power cable into.
2.5 DC Power Connection
The MRD 5800 with the DC chassis option is intended for use on 48V DC systems. A
power cable is not included for this option. In order to apply power to the unit in this
configuration, simply connect the screw terminals on rear of the unit to the rack’s DC
power rails.

protective device rated at 50 V, 5 A, type: Slow-blo fuse as part of battery-supply
circuit. Also, to reduce the risk of shock and damage to equipment, it is

5800 – be connected to the installation’s rack, battery negative terminal, and/or earth
ground.
